Republicans Feud Over Senate NoShows as Biden Gets 'Leftist' Judge Through
"A heated feud has erupted within the Republican Party over Senate no-shows, after President Joe Biden successfully pushed through a controversial "leftist" judicial nominee.
With two months to go until Donald Trump becomes president, Democrats are attempting to confirm as many of Biden's judicial appointments as possible during the lame-duck session.
On Monday, the Democrat-led Senate voted 49-45 to confirm Judge Embry Kidd, who Republicans have described as a "leftist," to the Florida 11th Circuit Court of Appeals. The circuit covers Florida, Alabama, and Georgia. He will be President Biden's second appointee to the federal appeals court in the area.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said in floor remarks that Kidd was "exceptionally qualified," and noted that the chamber would continue to prioritize moving judicial nominees quickly through the end of the year."
